Tedeschi Trucks Band feat. The National Reserve

The 12-member strong Tedeschi Trucks Band carries a distinguished reputation as one of the premier live bands performing today. Embracing improvisation over convention, and rarely repeating a set list, the genre-defying collective have seemingly endless potential to explore any musical territory - from their own catalog of Grammy-winning originals to Sly & the Family Stone, Miles Davis, George Jones, Joe Cocker or Nina Simone. Trucks’ masterful guitar skills and Tedeschi’s soaring vocals and bluesy guitar shine but don’t overpower the breadth of world class musicianship on stage, a testament to the genuine respect within TTB’s ranks. The band’s latest concert film/audio release Live From The Fox Oakland, nominated for a 2018 Grammy, makes it clear that Trucks and Tedeschi have no intention of slowing down now. “I haven’t found this band’s ceiling yet,” says Trucks in the film. For Tedeschi Trucks Band, there may not be one.

Erth’s Prehistoric Aquarium Adventure

Erth’s Prehistoric Aquarium Adventure was created in Australia by Erth Visual & Physical, who spent years scouring the seven seas, collecting playful prehistoric creatures of the deep for their giant theatrical aquarium. This show explores the unknown ocean depths where prehistoric marine reptiles lived eons ago. Prehistoric Aquarium Adventure follows the enormously successful Erth’s Dinosaur Zoo Live, which introduced a menagerie of insects, mammals and dinosaurs which roamed the planet 65 million years ago. Both shows feature a large-scale cast of creatures brought to life by sophisticated design, theatrical presentation and puppet mastery. Prehistoric Aquarium is a real adventure taking place at the bottom of the ocean; the audience experience is enriched via immersive techniques that make them feel as though they are sometimes swimming with the creatures in the tank.

Erth’s Prehistoric Aquarium Adventure is produced in the North America by Red Tail Entertainment; the Erth/Red Tail collaboration is dedicated to offering entertaining family shows that are based in the real science of paleontology. Children can watch and learn, while interacting with the creatures in a fun, educational and unique presentation. Erth shows use actors, technology, puppets, science and imagination to create an amazing visual experience that connects young audiences to science.
